Dubbed by URB Magazine one of "...five of the most promising up-and-coming (UK Garage) producers here at home", with two successful releases on vinyl and eight mixes gaining him exposure in other top music publications including, XLR8R, Mixer, Deuce, and Undercover, G Notorious has been pushing the 2-Step/Underground Garage sound in the US since 2000.
In Boston, he ran three consecutive weekly club nights; DYNAMITE, LIVELY, and RUNNIN. Collectively lasting over a year and a half, the three nights exposed thousands of club-goers to the sound and built a dedicated local following for the music.
As a DJ, G Notorious contrasts soulful elements with rugged beats and heavy bass. He plays with a bias toward Reggae and Hip-Hop style vocals but represents the entire spectrum of sounds within Underground Garage while focusing on whatever styles are current. Currently he is focusing on Grime, Bassline, and Dubstep. A typical live set includes cutting edge promos, classic anthems, and unreleased dubplates. While it lasted, G was a member of the Push It Promotions Record Pool, serviced by Red Rose Recordings and Unit 5 among other labels. More recently he was chosen among the top 30 Garage DJ's in North America to be a member of the RINSE IT record pool. He has also written Garage record reviews for XLR8R.
With his particular take on the Underground Garage sound, G Notorious has regularly rocked dancefloors all over New England and New York. In the spring of 2004 he played at TRANSATLANTIC 3, the only UKG event at the annual Winter Music Conference in Miami, Florida. He also represented Boston at the first annual GARAGE CONFERENCE in Dallas, Texas in the summer of 2004.
As well as his releases on vinyl, two of G's Garage tracks and one he wrote in collaboration with DeepSix from Toronto, Canada, as GeeSixCru, were featured on URBAN RENEWAL RECORDS "TRANSATLANTIC BASS" compilation CD.
G Notorious also built and runs SoulChampion.com , the leading stateside Underground Garage web site. SoulChampion provides a public outlet for information about the music and the SoulChampion Crew but most importantly hosts the world's largest collection of North American produced Underground Garage dubplates. Since January 2005 the site's scope has begun to grow to encompass the overall US and Canadian Garage scene and to provide a bridge of communication between the heavy hitters in the US, Canadian, and UK Garage scenes.
